#PortSaidmassacre : The Mohamed Mahmoud Battle 2 "Updated"

For hours now hundreds of angry protesters are trying reach to the ministry of interior again and for hours now the clashes have not stopped between these protesters and the security forces mostly from the CSF assigned to protect the ministry in none other than : The bloody Mohamed Mahmoud street !!
Of course there are new streets added to the bloody Mohamed Mahmoud like El Falaky and Nubar. Things are not good at all.
The protesters managed to bring down the infamous Mohamed Mahmoud street wall.
According to the ministry of health over 800 were injured today in the clashes at ministry of interior , most of the clashes resulted from suffocation due to the endless tear gas as well rubber bullets and birdshots. Chaotic scene by all measures especially that many people and political organizations are begging the protesters not to go to the MOI as it seems to be another trap.
April 6th Youth movement “both fronts” have urged the protesters to leave MOI and its streets and head to Tahrir square but nobody listens. At first we were being told that these guys are Ultras Ahlaway but the famous fan league issued a statement saying that they are not protesting at the MOI because they are busy in the funerals. Ultras experts say that they were there , things would have been far worse. The ministry of interior announced that over 50 officer and conscript have been injured , most from suffocation but currently there is increase rate of injuries by birdshots and rubber bullets
On the other hand things are more than alarming in Suez as young angry protesters have attacked the Suez security directorate after the death of one of the young football fans in Port Said. The security forces fired tear gases as well rubber bullets and birdshots.
The protesters from another hand began to make the Molotov cocktails and threw at the security directorate. According journalist Eric Knecht who is currently in Suez some people began to convince other protesters to end the demonstration especially that they are exhausted
There have been strong rumors that the head of the Suez security directorate was killed and the police force has withdrew from the city but they are untrue. At least 40 were injured including a young man who has lost his eye because of a bloody rubber bullet.

Of course according to other tweeps from local Suez young men the clashes are still intense and people are being injured and transferred to hospitals.

Update : Two protesters have been reported killed in the clashes ,they were shot down by live ammunition. Among the late two martyrs a 17 years old.
